Summary[edit]

Description
Deutsch: Kupferstich des Juristen und Staatsmannes Kaspar Klock (1583–1655). Die Inschrift unter dem Bild lautet:
   Nil mundana moror: gemat aut fremat Orbis et Orcus,
   Marte palam varios incutiente metus.
   Ergo Vale Fortuna Domus, SPES FAMA Valete:
   Caelica non dubia metior astra Fide. 

Nicht halte ich mich mit Weltlichem auf, mögen Erde und Hölle auch seufzen und stöhnen, wenn Mars ganz offen einen Schrecken nach dem andern verbreitet. Also lebt wohl, Vermögen und Haus, HOFFNUNG und RUHM, die Sterne am Himmel messe ich mit meinem nie wankenden Glauben.

Darunter:

   Qualia peniculo fido simulacra politi
   Corporis haec KLOCKI sculpta tabella refert:
   Talia sunt animi monumenta ut marmore corpus
   Rectius haut formet Praxilitea [recte: Praxitelea] manus.
   Heîc pictura loquens heîc posteritatis imago est,
   Quae ferat authori debita vota suo. 

So wie das Bild von Klocks ansehnlicher Gestalt, das dieses mit getreuem Griffel gestochene Blatt gibt, so sind auch die Werke seines Geistes, so daß auch Praxiteles’ Hand nicht richtiger seinen Leib in Marmor bilden könnte.

Hier ist ein sprechendes Bild, hier ein Bild der Nachwelt, das seinem Urheber die geschuldeten Wünsche bringe.
